Rotterdam, October 31, 2025 – Zirrow B.V. from Rotterdam and HighTech Innovators from ’s-Hertogenbosch have signed a collaboration agreement. The partnership focuses on improving efficiency within the IT landscape, with an emphasis on sustainability initiatives in the IT domain — including energy consumption, performance monitoring, and data-driven optimization.
This step follows the previously announced collaboration between Zirrow and Hugo van den Berg of Sciante and marks the next phase in building a strong knowledge and innovation network within the IT and data center sector.
“We’re pleased that HighTech Innovators strengthens this partnership with expertise in sustainable software development, cloud migrations, and AI applications. While Zirrow uses real-time data to pinpoint exactly where energy and money are leaking from an IT environment, Hightech Innovators ensures that a sustainable solution is designed and implemented,” said Marco Verzijl, co-founder of Zirrow.nl.
The collaboration with HighTech Innovators also brings additional practical knowledge, experience, and application in the area of European sustainability frameworks such as the EU Green Deal, Digital Europe, and the Net-Zero Industry Act.
HighTech Innovators combines its experience in high-tech engineering and AI solutions with the data-driven approach of Zirrow and Sciante.net. Together, they are creating new opportunities to integrate software intelligence, energy management, and digital sustainability into smart, future-proof IT solutions.
“At HighTech Innovators, we want to make a difference by applying our technical expertise to societal challenges such as sustainability. We strongly believe in the power of an ecosystem in which each party contributes its own specialization and complements the others. With this consortium, we are taking an important step to help our clients structurally embed sustainability in their IT environments — turning IT, which is often still a driver of CO₂ emissions, into a force for reducing them,” said Peter-Paul Verhoef, CEO of HighTech Innovators.
With this partnership, Zirrow, HighTech Innovators, and Sciante.net strengthen their position within a growing consortium dedicated to making sustainability in Europe’s digital infrastructure measurable and transparent.
